Playing with Clay

Playing activities can not be separated from relaxing, having fun, imaging, planning, managing, try and error, which also needs an open mind for unpredictable things to happen. Sometimes 'miracles' comes out during the process, sometimes plans could be realized, sometimes you have to start again from the beginning.

Clay might be 'the right partner' to axperience the aspect of playing which include :

  • preparation
  • understanding the character
  • planning
  • measuring the skill/capacity
  • maintenance
  • step of the process
  • predictable and unpredictable things
  • personal aspects

The dialog between the parcipants with the clay is mostly a very personal dialog, which works quiet and deep inside a person.

From the dialog will grow an internal value, to understand the process of dealing with clay and the meaning of the target. The target is not only focusing on what we plan, but also realizing the change of mind after following the journey of process, playing with the clay.
